I don’t recommend
So let’s start with the magnet that holds the knife, it’s weak. Press too hard against the knife with the roller and it will come off and you risk getting cut. Next the sharpener didn’t do a good job, I’m not impressed. You can get better results with a pull through knife sharpener. I thought I’d spend the extra money and get something of quality but I feel like I wasted my money on this.

Good Sharpening Kit, but There’s a Learning Curve
This sharpening kit is nicely made and feels solid. The quality seems good overall, but I did have a hard time figuring out how to use it at first. It’s definitely something that will take time and practice to really get the hang of.I also found it difficult to sharpen smaller knives, which may just come down to technique. I’m hoping that with more use and practice, I’ll be able to improve my sharpening results. Overall, it seems like a decent kit, just be prepared for a learning curve if you’re new to this type of sharpener.

A good addition to your kitchen
This Rolling Knife Sharpener Set is a high-quality product that offers an effective, modern way to maintain your knives. From the moment you unbox it, the set's presentation and component quality are impressive, making it feel like a premium purchase.Learning Curve and InstructionsAs a first-time user of a rolling sharpener, the learning curve was initially a bit steep. Compounding this challenge, the instructions provided inside the box actually differ from the instructions printed on the box, which can be confusing at first.However, the design is forgiving, meaning it's hard to mess up your blades too badly. It definitely takes a bit of practice to get it down, but once you have the technique down, it becomes easy as can be—a quick and efficient process.Performance and ResultsI've tested this on a few different kitchen knives, and it truly works very well. The difference after sharpening is quite great; they really do get much sharper.A point of confusion relates to the various sharpening angles. The instructions are not extremely clear on when to use which angle for different knives, requiring some trial and error to figure out the best approach.Limitations and AccessoriesWhile excellent for most kitchen knives, the set is not able to accommodate smaller knives, like pocket knives. The included magnetic holder simply doesn't accommodate their size and shape effectively.However, the set offers a great overall experience, featuring a very nice storage stand that keeps all components organized and accessible. It ultimately sharpens well and is super easy to use once the initial learning hurdle is overcome.Overall VerdictDespite the initial confusion from the conflicting instructions, this Rolling Knife Sharpener Set is a highly recommended product. Its excellent build quality, effective sharpening ability, and convenient storage make it a valuable addition to any serious home cook's tools.

Looks Nice
This is a nice knife sharpening kit overall - sharpens well and angles are accurate. I got this to give as a gift and the quality looks nice. Instructions are clear and everything is labeled well. The only reason it isn't getting 5 stars is one of the sharpening disks is slightly damaged on one edge. I don't believe it will impact sharpening, it seems to be cosmetic only. Quality control could be a little better though.

Sharpen your knives at home
Anyone who cooks a lot knows their knives get dull over time and need to be sharpened. I've been concerned about sharpening my knives, worrying that I will make them worse. This toolkit provided what I needed to restore some of my old knives to a sharp edge. There is a little bit of a learning curve to using this. It was not obvious to me which angle I should start at. After reading the directions and searching online I started at the 20 degree angle and followed the directions to use the coarse disc then the fine disc to finish. When I wiped the blade after sharpening I could see some of the metal had been removed and visually, I could see the edge of the knife edge looked more even. Cutting with the knife after sharpening was the final test to show the edge had been improved. I think with more practice I will be able to get a sharper, more even edge.The kit comes with 2 coarse disks and 2 finishing disks. The printed materials disagree on whether the fine disk is 1000 grit or 3000 grit, so just understand one is coarse and one is fine. There are no instructions on how to use the leather strap, so you may want to research that online to get the smoothest edge possible. The orange box this comes in makes this a nice set suitable for gifting.

Simply beautiful.
There are many rolling sharpening kits out there and as far as I know, this wasn’t the original brand. Honestly, that doesn’t mean much these days as all of them could be produced at the same location. First impressions… wow!Beautifully packaged. You have a nice stand, a magnet with 15 and 20 degree edges, the roller with the 400 and 3000 grits already installed, extra 400 and 3000 end pieces, and a leather strop mounted on a thin board.I grabbed a rather dull pocket knife from the drawer and went to work. Mark your edges with a sharpie to see where it’s grinding. Always a good idea. The magnet did a really good job of getting me exactly at 20 degrees.The 400 grit really took off a lot of material and was almost too course for my liking. It’ll be perfect for other knives, but this knife wasn’t too terribly dull. I finished up with the fine grit and used the strop to get the burr off.It ended up sharper than before but definitely not razor sharp. I really think adding some other grits to the kit would change that.All in all, great for maintaining a specific angle and getting a decent edge on your knife. I have some flat, higher grit diamond plates that can give me a razor edge, but it’s difficult to maintain the correct angle by hand. This is a great sharpener at a reasonable price.
